A narrow, one way road that is not suitable for RV's or over-size vehicles and that offers three miles of thrills.

This is a great free attraction that might not be well advertised, but you don't want to miss it. We just stumbled upon it when a server told us about it. Just outside Canon City look for a sign directing you to turn right. It's a narrow one way road along the top of a mountain crest that gives you a wonderful view off both sides of the crest where you can see all of canon city on one side and the mountains on the other side. Several pull offs where you can park and get out as well as trail connections if you wanted a vigorous hike.
